yeah i watched that vid but id have 2 say urs does look better than his tho, i know in person tells the real story but urs looks as if the red is clashing with the blue causing it 2 b that purple/pinky colour u mentioned? interesting none the less man its given me some ideas on somthing we can improve on 4 guys if they r interested going this far.

Milo is the one that came up with this idea, the guys in the YouTube video from the best of my understanding used his idea...

Here is a link to see how it looks VY Commodore Tacho Shiftlight - YouTube

Note that it would look better in person and be more red than pink

Hope that helps

Hey mate.

Good tut.

Is there any reason not to change to white? The lenses arent tinted or anything like that are they? Pretty keen to do it.

Lenses aren't tinted but needles are I made my needles white but they light up red Not sure what to do because if i scratch the red off i wont be able to see them much in the day time.

Maybe sand off the red and put white out or white paint on top to make it stand out?

Upload photos guys :) and do us a favour and in your rides thread have a link to this thread :)
